of mcclellan _ and other papers will ' be impressed with the candor of col dodge in contrast with the disingenu ousness and actual falsifying of the federal writers in the century maga zine col dodge represents mcclellan : as defeating lee atsharpsburg we do not think that he is exactly correct in this jsharpsburg could not be claim ed as a federal victory when gcn lee stood ready to give battle a sec ond day which was not accepted by mcclellan he is sufficiently plain spoken even wheu dealing with his own people referring to gen lee up to the time of his invasion of pennsylvania which he says was contrary to lee's judgment but the the davis regime insisted â€” aud lee decided upon invasion â€” col dodge j says his carrer had been one of al most uninterrupted victory he had driven mcclellan from richmond he had outgeneraled pope lie had invaded the north and though for ced back had defeated buruside with fearful slaughter at maryc's heights 1 , he had just won by sheer skill or lack of it a campaign against hook j cr in which he numbered less than half lhe force of the army of the po tomac no wonder his rugged rag â– ged veterans felt invincible col dodge not only bears testimo ny to the fine generalship of lee and the splendid fighting qualities ofthe boys in gray but he also bears wit ness to the general good condu.t ot . the confederates when lee invaded pennsylvania his testimony is true as all confederates know we quote what he says it must be said in honor of the confederate trops and especially of their leaders while on union soil that discipline was well maintained j and that beyond contributions levied in accordance with strict legal war j fare no more than accidental harm was done to the districts through which they passed however unjusti fiable so much that is beyond de scription horrible might have been wrought by the men who had seen heir own smiling fields made a howling waste ly lhe misfortunes of war that we j ' : should remember their forbearance in j the midst of our own happy homes j but if this interesting paragraph is read in connection with gen lees ' order issued before the march was be j gun you will not be so much surpris jed at the unparralleled forbearance i and good conduct of the southern , ! soldiers gen lee's order was a mod j el and the behavior of the southern i ers was above praise â–º i we do not propose to follow col j dodge in his very interesting discus sion ofthe great battle that followed at gettysburg we havo not space ' but there are a few points to which ; we must refer he says the federals r had sixteen thousand live hundred soldiers in the tirst days fight ami when the roll call was made after swards but five thousand responded | he thinks the results justified the loss '' as it gained the battle on the next two days this fight occurred on the 1st of july 1863 to hancock he i gives the credit for fighting the bat - ties on the ground they they did on j 2nd and 3rd it was he says his urgent advice that determined meade to fight at gettysburg he says lee was unusually slow in his movements but it attributable to his lack of knowledge of our movements due primarily to his being in hostile territory but in almost equel measure to the absence ofstuari ,) the absence of stuart was most unfortunate he was the eyes of the iuvading army but he had allowed himself to become separated from the main army for some seven or eight days and had to make a longdeteurto get back all that time lee was without cavalry we have no doubt that gettysburg would never have been fought or if fought would have been differently fought if stuart had been with lee col dodge gives clear statemens of what occurred on the three days of battle he shows where there were mistakes made according to him the surroundings of lee were such he was forced to fight his men expect ed it but he adds lee guaged bet ter than his men the fighting qualities ofthe foe he shows what tremen dous obstacles and difficulties lee had to contend with on the second and third day but he was impelled by the temper of his men to boldly at tack longstreet was very slow on the second day aud lee rather blun dered he thinks in his plan of the third day's attack he says he ought to have concentrated all his forces along the line of sctninory ridge lee was mislead by ewell's confi dence in his ability to capture gulp's hill but if he discusses lee's er ror he immediately says however admirable lee's tactics generally were luncever easily he stands chief among the soldiers of our civil war he was here open to criticism he says af ter the fight it is easy to criticise when we have charts of the field ample materials for investigation the ben efit ofthe research and acumen of the best military judges and viewing the field as we do a problem on the chess board with perfect knowledge of numbers c he says we may now pass judgment on lee's general ship but if we stood where stood it would be altogether another task he says that lee will go into history antl will be enrolled upon the short first peige of ca.ptain8 of the world he also recognizes the splendid ge nius of stonewall jackson and mure than once praises it heartily he al so has a high opinion of a p hill jeb stuart longstreet and ewell he shows that on the third day there was a great time lost â€” most precious time he says â€” on the part of the confederates before the assault was made on the federal centre he says there was a lack of unity on the part of lee's generals he describes pick et's charge gives him great praise and we must think unintentionally disparages pettigrew'scommand,com posed of four brigades the only one from nortii carolina being his own he says the column of pettigrew i never reached our line it broke be i fore it could accomplish anything of ! moment hays sharp fire had quick ly checked its onset and captured two thousand five hundued prisoners how couldthis be if the charge was not successful and did not reach the federal lines we call col dodge's attention to the excellent map of col batchelder â€” a northern officer it will be seen we think that pettigrew _ command pucked farther inlo the federal lines | than did any portion of picket's men j he knows the value of the map refer | red to it co-t years of correspond i ence with men on both sides who | fought in the battle to prepare it i we also call col dotlge's attention i to the great loss sustained by petti | grew's men in killed and wounded if he will write to capt young of \ pettigrew's staff at charleston s c he can procure an account of what pettigrew's men did prepared by himself and at the instance of ths sur viving officers of pettigrew's north carolina brigade not long after the ' fi.-ht manifest injustice was done â€¢ the command by virginia writers and | this has been kept up ever since it â– was to correct the false reports that i the officers of the brigade met and re quested capt young to prepare a !
